4Your Own Private Detective

Ask a Peer to Track Your Development

LET’S SAY YOU’VE IDENTIFIED a particularly difficult development challenge for yourself. It might have surfaced from the 360° process, or maybe your boss has really started to insist that you shore up a particular weakness (those darn bosses—they do that sometimes, don’t they?). OK, because you’re incredibly perceptive, you’ve figured out that he’s serious this time; you need to work on this behavior, or else. You’re not sure what the “or else” is, but you’re not willing to find out. You’re ready to turn this around—right now. You’re going to plot your own self-development and make this weakness disappear for good.
